1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

If your dishwasher will not run, or stops during a cycle:

lIs the door tightly closed and securely latched? l Has the cycle been correctly set?

l Is the water turned on?

l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

lIs the dishwasher connected to a live circuit with the proper voltage?

lIf the motor has stopped because of an overload, it will automatically reset itself within a few min- utes. If the motor does not start, call for service.

If your dishwasher seems to run too long:

lAre you using Pots & Pans Cycle or Hi-Temp Rinse Option? The dishwasher may be waiting for the water to heat.

If dishwasher won’t fill:

lIs overfill protector stuck in “up”position? Overfill protector should move up and down freely. Press down to release.

If water remains in the dishwasher:

lHas the cycle completed?

l A small amount of remaining water is normal.

lIs drain air gap clogged?

If detergent remains in the covered detergent cup:

9 Is the bottom rack in backwards? (The rack bumpers should be at the front.)

l Is the dishwasher detergent fresh and dry without lumps?

. Is the cycle completed?

If white residue appears on front of access panel:

l Is more detergent being used than needed? See page 12 for recommended amounts of detergent.

l Some liquid detergents develop excess foam and build up on exterior of access panel. Try a different brand to reduce foaming and eliminate build-up.

If you hear grinding, grating, crunching, buzzing sounds:

l A hard object has probably entered the POWER CLEAN TyModule. The sound should stop when the object is ground up.

If dishes aren’t as dry as you expected:

l Is the rinse agent dispenser filled? Using a rinse agent greatly improves drying. (See page 13.)

8700 Series specifications

The Whirlpool 8700 Series represents a pinnacle in home appliance innovation, delivering both style and functionality for today’s discerning homeowner. Renowned for its reliability and performance, this series includes appliances like washers and dryers that cater to the varied needs of modern families.

One of the standout features of the Whirlpool 8700 Series is its Adaptive Wash Technology. This cutting-edge technology uses sensors to evaluate load size and fabric type, optimizing the wash cycle for the best clean possible while minimizing water and energy consumption. This not only ensures that garments are treated with care but also contributes to more efficient resource usage, making it an eco-friendly choice for households.

Another significant advantage of the Whirlpool 8700 Series is its option for EcoBoost, which allows for enhanced energy savings. This feature utilizes a combination of water temperature adjustment and cycle optimization to reduce overall energy consumption. Users can enjoy a thorough cleaning experience without the guilt of a high utility bill.

The washers in this series also include the Precision Dispense feature, which automatically releases detergent, bleach, and fabric softener at the right time during the wash cycle. This ensures that each item receives the correct amount of cleaning solution, enhancing cleaning effectiveness while preserving fabric quality.

Dryers in the series come equipped with Advanced Moisture Sensing technology. This feature monitors the drying process to prevent over-drying, ensuring clothes are dried just right. The result is reduced wear and tear on fabrics, extending the life of clothing. Additionally, the Wrinkle Shield option helps to prevent wrinkles by tumbling clothes intermittently after the cycle ends.

Style and design are not overlooked in the Whirlpool 8700 Series. With a sleek, modern look and an intuitive control panel, these appliances fit seamlessly into contemporary home aesthetics.
